will highlight the importance of infection control and infection surveillance in a<br />

tertiary eye centre.<br />

<strong>SNEC</strong> prides itself on its low postoperative infection rates and the aim of this<br />

seminar is to promote continued awareness of minimising the risk of postoperative<br />

infection among all medical and nursing staff.<br />

The correct technique of hand washing, gowning, instrument handling and<br />

maintaining strict operating theatre sterility will be emphasised. Prophylactic<br />

measures undertaken by the ophthalmic surgeon to prevent postoperative<br />

endophthalmitis will also be discussed in detail.<br />
